Advice to Country Girls.

City life is not all that it is painted
It has it pleasures and conyeniences,
b ut 1t also has its draw backs. Before
making the plunge into life in the city,
country girls should ask themselves
what is really to be gained by it.
Perhaps In their quiet homes some
stray advertiaemint has reached them,
promising to young women high salar
les for light work. Hundred Of these
advertisemen are framed for the pur-
pose of deceiving the unweary. They
accomplish their purpose, however, and
large numbers ofyoung girls rush up to

Some Dog Stories.

have heard one or two dog stories
lately, which. if the facts are rightly
interpreted, tend toshow that this ami
NAL is even more hnman in his ways Of
thought than is commonly supposed.
A friend of mine whose occupation is
here in Boston, but who lives in the
suburbs and comes home regularly at
certain hour in the afternoon, has a
setter that is always on the watch for
him. taking his station at the front gate
OF his masters premises about an hour
before he is due. The other day the
dog ran off on some canine lark and
stayed out ali night. The next day he
was seen lurking near his home, but ap.
parently prevented from going back by
fear Of punishment. A messenger was
sent after him, and he came skulking
into the house with an obvious sense of
having INDUCED in an cscapade entire.
ly Ill becoming to well bred dog. An.
other case, a lady here in Boston insists
upon it that her little skye terrier in.
variably lie down and forti6es himself

walk is in propect. l must coufess the

An extraordinary antiphY for puppies.
The pup everyone knows, is not only
genial, and "sfable,' to use two fa
vorite Boston words, but is positively
ELUSIVE, and at times even presump-
tuous in his efforts to induce people
and dogs to play with him. The setter
il question has horror Of hun. When.
ever puppy comes near him he utters
a dismal howl and gets out Of the way
as fast as possible. This may be mere
disgust and contempt, but apparently
it is something more than this 1t seems
as if the setter had the sense supernat.

something weird and uncanny, which

An ExcitinglMatch.

An eating match that has been on
the tapis for some months has just taken
place IN Indianapolis. The contestants
were John Reeder and Joe Blakey, bar.
bers, whose gastromic feuts have arous.
ed the enthusiasm Of their admirers on
several occasions. There were no stakes,
and that the contest might be carried
on as cheaply as possible, it was located
at restaurant run by Il colored lady,
whose customers are attracted by the
legend over the door, "All you can eat
for 25cts." When Blskey fell of his
chair Reeder had disposed Of the follow
ing: Six pounds of roast beef and pork
loaf Of corn bread, u loaf of wheat
bread, two orders Of cooked potatoes,
dozen in all, pound Of radishes, four
pies, and six glasses of iced tea, alt
together eight pound more of stuff that
Blaky could not get awav with. The
effects of the feast We're far more no.
ticeable upon the unfortunate proprei.
etress Of the restaurant than upon tho
eaters for as much rs they were able to
persue their usual avocation during the
afternoon, she was Consumed with grief
and it is doubtful if she ever recovers
from the devastation and wrought in
her larder.

FIRST LOVE.

Meeting you,
In September
Bixty.two.
We were eating,
Both Of us,
And the meeting
Happened thus.
Accidental
On the road,
Sentimental
Episode.
l was gushing,
You was shy,
You were blushing,
30 was !.
l was smitten,
So we're you.
Gan that's written
Here is true.)
Any money!
Not q bit.
Very funny,
Wasn't il?
Vows were plighted,
Then and there,
How delighted
Two hearts were!
But our father,
To be sure,
Thought It rather
Premature.
And your mother,
Strange to say,
Was another
In the way.
What a heaven
Vanished then!
You were seven,
l was ten.
That was many
Years ago,
Don't let any
Body know.

Beechcr's Wisdom.

To one who is living Alright, no death
can be sudden and no place unfavora-
BILE. One step and all roads meet.
Dying is the best part of life to one
who knows how to live worthily.
Death is sweet as flowers are. 1t is
as blessed as bird-singing in spring.
T never heard of the death of any one
who is ready to die, that my heart does
not sing like a harp. 1 am sorry for
those that are left behind, but not for
those who have gone before.
Don't NOPE. Be young as loEg as
you live. Laugh good deal. Frolic
every day. A low tone of mind is uu-
healthy.
A lawyer who works ten months in
the year, and then for two solid
months amuses himself, will last twice
as long as if he took no recreation.
Men have come to think that tears
are more sacred than smiles. No!
Laughter is as divine as crying =.
Humor usually tends toward good
nature, and everything that tends to.
ward good nature tends toward good
grace.
If laughing's sin, don't see what
the Lord let so many funny things
happen for.
Having wit and buoyancy of spirits,
let Them flash out in services of relig-
ion. Don't consider it necessary to
rake them up and hide them.

A Week Of Self.Denfal.

The Board of Missions appointed the
week, beginning August 8, as Il week o
prayer and self-denial in the interest oi
our missions.
This leaves each person to elect for him
self or herself the particular thing OF
things of which he or she may deny self
as eating or drinking in kind or quantity
or both. Another way which might come
nearer an "equaltv' would be for preach
ers and others who receive a salary to
give a certain per cent. of salary; and
all others give according as the Lord has
prospered them in their several callings.
Self-denial in a certain thing may not
be much self-denial with another person.
And even where self denial is of the
same kind with two DR. more persons
little self denial with some Of that class
may be, considering circumstances, much
more to their credit than others who may
do greater things, but with less trouble
with the cross grain timber OF the Adainic
nature.
After all, what any person may do that
week will depend on his ability and will
lingness.

Danger OF Keeping Bad Company.

The crows, one spring, began to pull
up q farmers young corn, which he
determined to prevent. He loaded his
gun, prepared to give them warm re-
ception. The farmer had sociable
parrot, who, discovering the crows
pulling up the corn, flew over and
Joined them. The farmer detected
the crows, but did not see the parrot.
He fired among them, and hastened TO
see what execution he had doEe.
There lay three dead crows and his pei
parrot with ruff1ed feathers and a bro
ken leg. When the bird was taken
home the children asked:
"What did it, papa? Who hurt our
pretty Poll?"
"Bad company! Bad company
answered the parrot in solemn voice.
"Ay! that it was" said the farmer.
"Poll was with those wicked crows
when fired, and received shot in
tended for them. Remember the par,
rot's fate children. Beware OF bad
company"
With these words the farmer turned
round, and with the aid of his wife,
bandaged the broken leg. and in few
weeks the parrot was as lively as ever.
But it never forgot its adventure in
the corntield; and if ever the farmers
children engaged in play with quarrel
some companions, it invariably dis
persed them with the cry, bad COM
pany! Bad company"

COM MONS.
What Can You DO Well a?

A poor clergyman died and left O
widow and two daughters. One o
the daughters was an invalid, and tht
other became the mainstay of the lit
tie family. Like too MANY girls, she
had received a general but superficial
education, which did not qualify hel
to teach anything.
She had no taste or skill as a milli
ner or dressmaker. What could she
do? Accidentally, she heard a. mum
Der of housekeepers regretting the inn
possibility of having hot, fresh cakes
for Sundays breakfast. She had q re-
ceipt for making English mullins
which, if baked on Saturday, can be
heated the next morning.
She called on her friends, and took
orders for these mullins. The cakes
were delicious, and promptly served
Her customers increased. She has
now large establishment, and a com.
Portable income.
Another woman, in the same posi-
ton, "took stock of herself" to dis
cover what she could do.
"I know" she said, "that it is the
thing which we can do better than any
one else. however trivial it may be,
which commands success. l had but
one little craft: I could dress hair, and
understood its management. l sci
out upon tour through the inland
towns and villages of the Middle
States, advertising that Mrs. P
would teach ladies to dress their hair
hecomingly, and to care for it on sci
entific principles.
"In these small towns coifares are
unknown. was the first to enter a
new field, and 1 reaped rich harvest:
Since then I have visited and found
business in great many of the larger
towns in the United States"
Another woman, q haif-starVed
dressmaker in great city where there
were hundreds of dressmakers, over
heard a gentleman in a street-car say,
that there was no place in the city
where q man could have his socks or
underwear mended. She took q room
near a college, and opened mendlnng
shop. She, too, was the one person IN
possession of o new business, and
therefore succeeded.
1t is impossible to advise in any in
dividual case. Two things are essen
tial to success in any attempt to earn
a livelihood: First; that we shall have
skill in the work we undertake; and,
secondly, that it fill demand of the
public.
"If you make good pin," says one
of the most successful of modern man
ufacturers, "you will earn more than
if you make a bad steam engine"
Look about you to find All untitled
demand. The woman who furnished
mullins because she saw that her
neighbors wanted mullins, is OH q lev
ell with Aspinwall, who saw that
American commerce needed ships to
the Isthmus of Panama, and built
them for it, and so laid the basis OF a
princely fortune.

HOUSE AND FARM.
A Few Words From the Horse.

The Tunbridge Well Society for the
prevention Of Cruelty to Animals,
publishes for circulation slip from
which we make al extract. If they
could only speak for themselves, would
not the horse and donkey say:
Don't beat our sides so hard and so
often, and we shall be stronger and
better servants to you. You know
how oppression only makes you set up
your back, but you will do anything
for kind master.
"Don't ride and drive us about till
we are ready to drop, and our wind is
almost broken, and we are reeking
with heat and rough usage.
PRAY let us have little more water
when we stand weary and thirsty,
with our poor dry tongues unable to
ask for it. You have felt the suffering
of thirst.
"And, for pity's sake" the horses
would say, "loosen this torturing rein /;
we toss or shake our heads or we try to
keep them still, and nothing gives us
q moments ease. You, master, would
suffer severely if your head were held
in such a position, and we could do
more work and much better without
it.
"Please remember that we can al
ways hear your voice, and shall un-
derytand what you want us to do 80
much more quickly if you speak to us
quietly, than if you roar at us, and
drag our tender worn mouths about.
We get so puzzled and frightened when
you are in rage with US, that we only
founder and plunge, and make yon
more and more angry.
"Our last entreaty is, that, when we
get old and past our work, you will
not let our poor wasted. bodies stagger
along under some load, when our lives
have been spent in your service, but
that you will reward us by having us
put out Of our pain"

A Call.

The Bishops of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church, South. are sending ont
through DR.. I. John, Secretary, long
and strong appeal for increased zeal and
liberality on the part of preachers and
members in support Of foreign missions.
While the present state of the missions is
gratifying, enlargement and new "open
doors" call for more men and women,
and these are ready to go but cannot with
out all increase eff funds. The address
closes in these earnest words:
"Let all our preachers call their congre-
cations to earnest prayer and liberal Civ
ing, regardless of any assessment which
may have been made upon their charges
or of contributions already made during
the year. A general and hearty response
to this call will, under God, enable us to
respond to the cry for re-entorcements
which comes up from each Of our mission
fields"
